John 1:29 “The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, “Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!”
As John the Baptist sees JESUS, he ANNOUNCES the ANNOUNCEMENT of ANNOUNCEMENTS, announcing Jesus is the LAMB of GOD to TAKE AWAY THE SIN OF THE WORLD!! While no man could ever take away their sin or anyone else’s sin, Jesus, the Messiah, is now here who will with His death and the shedding of His precious blood take away our sins. Like the angel’s announcement to the shepherds where they announced “For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord (Luke 2:11) this is a glorious announcement!
While we look back at this monumental moment may I have us look forward. For us, who are believers, those who have trusted in Jesus Christ for salvation, there will be a day for us to make a pronouncement in heaven as we will fall down before the Lamb of God and proclaim WORTHY IS THE LAMB!
One last thought. As believers, we are now Ambassadors for Christ, (2 Corinthians 5:20) and we are to be ANNOUNCING what JESUS DID and WHAT HE CAN DO for every lost sinner in the world. Seek today to get someone’s attention and announce to them the glorious gospel!
Continue Strong announcing the greatest news ever!
And remember to DATE The Word
